Synopsis
This book provides an overview of the work of Ernst May, one of the outstanding figures of classic modernist architecture. This catalog accompanies the first exhibition dedicated to the entirety of May’s work. It provides an overview of his most famous achievement, The New Frankfurt—a massive urban planning project which in the 1920s gave the city an unprecedented Modernist look and which provided thousands of ingeniously
and economically designed apartments. In addition, the book presents in detail Ernst May’s other architectural projects. It focuses on May’s time in Silesia, the Soviet Union and Africa as well as his post-war return to Germany. It also sheds light on May’s enormous impact on the fields of architecture and urban planning. The book’s hundreds of illustrations include contemporary photographs, original drawings and plans, and images of models and completed projects. More than a dozen essays examine various aspects of May’s work and life, and discuss the full range of his architectural oeuvre, presented in a comprehensive catalogue raisonée.

Hardcover. Condition: gut. Auflage: Bilingual. Ernst May wurde vor allem durch das »Neue Frankfurt«, die wegweisenden Wohnsiedlungen, die er von 1925 bis 1930 realisierte, bekannt. Doch sein Einfluss auf die Architektur und Städteplanung der Moderne ist sehr viel weitreichender. Der Band begleitet die erste Ausstellung, die sich explizit dem Gesamtwerk von Ernst May widmet. Mehr als ein Dutzend Essays beleuchten die verschiedenen Aspekte seines Lebens und seiner Arbeit. Sie beschäftigen sich mit seiner Zeit in Schlesien, der Sowjetunion und Ostafrika, ebenso wie mit seinem Wirken nach der Rückkehr in das Deutschland der Nachkriegszeit. Mit Hunderten von Fotos, Originalplänen, Zeichnungen, Modellen und einem umfassenden Werkverzeichnis wird erstmals ein vollständiger Überblick über die enorme Bandbreite seines Schaffens gezeigt. Peter Cachola Schmal, Architekt, ist seit 2006 Direktor des Deutschen Architekturmuseums in Frankfurt am Main. In deutscher Sprache. 336 pages. 30,2 x 24,4 x 2,5 cm. Seller Inventory # BN32541
